Accessibility

Parking for guests with disabilities is available throughout the surrounding garages and parking lots. For each event at Stifel Theatre, guests with the need for mobility assistance may be dropped off at the corner of 15th Street and Market Street. A ramp is available at this corner of the building for easier access to the front entrance of Stifel Theatre.

Stifel Theatre provides areas suitable for people with mobility disabilities who require accessible seating because of their disability under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). One companion seat is available for each seat reserved for a guest with a disability. These seats are provided in a wide variety of price ranges for all events. To purchase accessible seating, please contact the Accessibility Hotline at 314-622-5420.

For most Stifel Theatre events, a limited number of accessible seating options are available on site for guests who did not previously purchase accessible seating. To inquire about these on site options, please ask the nearest Guest Experience staff member for assistance. On site options are limited so guests are encouraged to contact the Accessibility Hotline prior to their arrival to secure accessible seating.

Assisted listening devices are available from the Guest Services Office located in the Ticket Lobby. The devices operate on a FM system and pick up the theatre audio feed. Please note that the feed may be limited for some shows and concerts due to tour requirements.

Guests wishing to check out a device must leave a driver’s license or credit card and upon return of the device in the same condition, the collateral will be returned. Devices are handed out on a first come, first served basis and are provided free of charge.

Stifel Theatre partners with MindsEye to provide audio description for select shows and events for our guests who are visually impaired. Due to limited availability, this service is only available by reserving a spot in advance.
